The "Suffragette" movie is still in the process of filming, but there are Oscar rumors circulating already.

Meryl Streep who has been cast as iconic feminist Emmeline Pankhurst in "Suffragette" already has Oscar nomination rumors swirling even before she's done filming.

Contactmusic.com reports that "Suffragette" has themes that are weighty and controversial enough to attract the attention of the Academy. Meryl Streep and her past of controversial roles are keeping expectations very high.

The cast of the highly anticipated Feminist film includes Meryl Streep, Carey Mulligan, Helena Bonham-Carter, Romola Garai, Anne Marie Duff and Samuel West.

Sarah Gavron is directing the "Suffragette".

The film will explore the early actions of the Suffragette movement along with the important figures who were involved in fighting for female liberation.

Just Jared has reported that the cast of "Suffragette" has already begun filming in London.

The always-beautiful Carey Mulligan was photographed with no makeup for her role as Maud. The "Inside Llewyn Davis" actress was in full costume with a fresh face relaxing on set.

Radiotimes.com reports that the cast and crew of "Suffragette" movie will be granted unprecedented access to film in the UK Parliament.

The movie will reportedly move to the House of Commons building in April and will be the first in line to be granted access when Parliament is in recess.

The chief executive of Film London and the British Film Commission, Adrian Wootton, stated, "Opening up such an iconic location as the House of Commons for filming is fantastic news. This unique location promises to attract more production to the capital, and by working with the industry and our partners, we will help ensure it can get the most of our filming, while protecting the integrity of this very special building."

Will the "Suffragette" movie and cast be nominated for an Oscar when the time comes? We'll have to see when the film is released later in 2014.
